AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoPeru Election Dead Heat: Peru’s National Electoral Jury (JNE) has finished the initial runoff count, but a review of contested ballots from over 1,600 polling stations (about 400,000 votes) is now underway; Keiko Fujimori led by just over 1,000 votes (50.004% vs 49.996%), and the process could take weeks, potentially until mid-July. Crime & Justice: Prosecutors asked for 35 years in prison for “El Monstruo” (Erick Moreno Hernández), leader of Los Injertos del Cono Norte, over a 2020 Comas kidnapping and extortion case; sentencing is set for June 24. Fishing & Food Supply: Peru again extended its anchovy fishing suspension in the North-Central zone, citing warming ocean conditions and high juvenile presence linked to El Niño—raising concerns for global fishmeal supply. El Niño Watch: NOAA says El Niño has formed and could intensify, with potential “super” strength—relevant for Peru’s weather and fisheries. World Cup in Peru: Police in Lima dressed as World Cup mascots to detain a suspected drug dealer, seizing cocaine paste, marijuana, a firearm, ammunition, cash, and phones.
